I've:
...NOTED that a pair of leather Adidas Copa Mundials-will be the best $100 futbol cleat investment you can imagine and could last 11 years- until the soles crack and your stripes become wings... Crown Heights, Brooklyn 2012 (**Noting these are my 2nd pair...) #BELIEVEIT
-Learned that 11 is far greater than 7 or 5, and when you're a # down- be it in the score, or the number of players, 15 minutes late for a game, a dollar short, "being down" can be seriously problematic..if not an odds-losing factor. #NUMBERSCOUNT
- Realized that families and friendships- and relationships on a whole are a profound series of inter-linked concentric circles, and there's something grassroots and positive that leaves you with a holding pattern and palette at the tips of your toes. #PROFOUND
- Found that 28 years later of play time has been a super bumpy ebb and flow adventure, but wherever you turn your head, THERE IS and always will be game...it's spread like wildfire.
-Nothing cooler than watching a superstar show and tell or someone half your age show you how it's done. #PUTTINGITALLINTOPERSPECTIVE
- Been fascinated by the kinds of relationships, criss-crossing patterns and profundity for the love and our beautiful game. What a strangely curious and eclectic lot:: what's not to love?
- Come to accept how different one's perspective playing a game versus watching from the sidelines and from a screen somewhere- specially when you're dying to play, but are out on injury.
- It is a game, match, and sport. Games could be shlits and giggles, or time and place-based, limited to 2 halves, and brilliance represented whether an innocent admirer or a die-hard fan. It can be admired lightheartedly or badly needed like your breakfast, lunch, and dessert... how hungry are you? #ITALLDEPENDSONYOU
Just let it make you dance in shadows, saunter in the light- and scream with delight...!
(...This is an ongoing post...and throwing my virtual stamp on it..)
